2012 NFL Mock Draft: Where Ryan Tannehill and Other Stars Will Land

Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III know where they're heading for their foreseeable NFL future. Everyone else in the 2012 NFL draft—not so much.

Rumors are flying left and right and there is no way to truly decipher what is true and what is false. Teams are positioning themselves for what we expect to be a wild first round, and that comes with plenty of surprises.

Here's a look at where the draft's No. 3 quarterback, Ryan Tannehill, and other stars will land when Commissioner Roger Goodell takes to the podium on Thursday night.

All the latest buzz has centered on the Vikings and their options here at No. 3. Matt Kalil has been penciled in for quite a while, but Minnesota reportedly has heavy interest in cornerback Morris Claiborne and possibly even wide receiver Justin Blackmon.

Ultimately, the best move for the Vikes is adding Kalil, as he boosts their entire left side of the line and immediately helps their two most important players, Adrian Peterson and Christian Ponder.

The Crimson Tide running back is a hot commodity, and there is talk of the Browns possibly trading out of this spot because everyone knows that new Bucs coach Greg Schiano won't pass on a chance to add Richardson.

Cleveland certainly gets better with the star running back, but they have a lot of holes to fill. If a good deal comes through, it will be hard for them to pass on it.

Tampa has needs all over the place, but cornerback is one of the biggest.

Mo is the best defensive player in the draft and potential superstar.

6. *St. Louis Rams (2-14): Justin Blackmon, WR, Oklahoma State

The trendy pick to the Rams is defensive tackle Fletcher Cox, but the Rams' need for a star receiver is far too big. Blackmon may not be No. 6 overall material, but the Rams don't have the luxury of passing on him.

Kansas City has Floyd on the radar as well, but DeCastro helps them get their returning star running back, Jamaal Charles, on track in his return from injury. He makes the entire offensive front better.

The opposite can be said for Brockers, a young defensive tackle with incredible upside. The redshirt sophomore still has his best football ahead of him, but he may not be ready to contribute immediately.
